Apparently a Jeep plowed through the front of Deffebach Gallery on the corner of 2nd and Warren streets this evening, coming to rest inside the building. It must have just happened in the last hour or so, because I drove past there after dinner at Da|Ba around 9:30 pm. The gallery currently has artwork by local dealer Mark Wasserbach on display, but it’s not known if any of the sculpture is damaged.
A car similarly smashed into the wrought iron fence of the Curtiss House at the corner of 1st and Warren (my former home) just a few months ago, causing extensive damage.
What gives on Lower Warren? One more of these and they may have to put in speedbumps.
